Hm I wonder though...didn't we have to have an active paid account to sign up for the alpha? Or just an account? I don't really remember lol ; ;

You need an active account, as said in the application requirements on the alpha page : http://entry.ffxiv.com/alpha/index_en.html

Well signing up for the Alpha requires you to log in using the Square Enix Account Management...So at the very least you would have to have an active SE account which is free for anyone to make.

I don't remember if having an active XIV account is required.....never mind it appears Patafix solved that one for me. lol

I'm ok with not receiving mail. I'm not ok when people who quit the game long ago, that werent even there at the end of the world, received a mail (true story). Nice way to thank those players who sticked with the game all along since even before day 1. I'm just sad.

It didnt even have to be Legacy members. Even if it were just players who played more than 3 months TOTAL, would have been nice.

From the other thread

I'm sure its been said over and over, but I feel like the ALPHA should have been dedicated players. Players who know how to play in general, so they can help find bugs and help stress test with little guidance.

Then for the first wave BETA they could have invited all those people who quit the game long ago. Hopefully by first wave Beta most of the prominent wrinkles would have been smoothed out.

Alpha is not for showing off.

yeah also very sad that people who applied for 1.0 beta that didn't get it, still didn't get in for this one, even signing up with the same account but very happy [people are getting in to make the make better

Isn't it despair?

Or are you un-pairing things?

If you unpaired your email from your account, I bet that's why you're not getting any.

You are, objectively speaking, the best Lalafell ever. <3

I read this thread and was like "wtf is this"

Then I read another thread about emails and I'm like "WTF!"

Now I'm posting here and I'm all like "wtf....."

People knew that only a small percentage was going to get in the alpha. Didn't they say the servers can only hold 800 at the moment before it crashs.

I think the 800 player limit was per zone.

On the Alpha topic, even if people knew that only a small percentage could get in, they have all the right to be disappointed if things like what Patafix said are happening..
